Luana Persíncula Andino (born October 18, 2001), known mononymously as Luana is a Uruguayan singer and television personality. She began her career performing at folk music festivals and performing covers of well-known hits.

Early life

Luana Persíncula Andino was born on October 18, 2001, in Colonia del Sacramento, to Óscar Persíncula and Soraya Andino.[1] She is of Portuguese and Basque descent.[2]

She attended Primary School No. 82 and began singing from an early age in her school choir and in church.[3] She was raised as an Evangelical Christian.

Career

Persíncula began her musical career in early 2018 by releasing plena-style covers of Karol G's single "A ella" and Abel Pintos' "Oncemil", both of which gained millions of views on YouTube.[4] From then on she began to perform at nightclubs, music festivals and private parties, which gave her wide popularity and earned her the nickname due to her young age.[3]

In September 2018 she released her first single "Amarte no se olvida", which quickly entered Spotify's Top 50 in Uruguay. She soon released the plena-style cover of Beret's "Lo siento". In October, the Institute for Children and Adolescents (INAU) revoked her work permit for non-compliance with certain requirements for night work for minors, so her musical career went on a hiatus until she came of age.[5]

After turning 18 in October 2019, Persíncula resumed her musical career, with the release of the Latin pop and urban singles "Mi primer amor", "Ocean", "Regreses tú" and "Soltarte" (featuring singers Lucas Sugo and Marcos da Costa).[6] [7] In 2020 she won the Graffiti Award for Single of the Year for "Mi primer amor".[8] In addition, after the elimination of health measures due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she carried out her Íntimos tour through Uruguay alongside singer Marcos da Costa.[9] In 2021 she released the singles "No me reemplaces" and "Andate" with Mariano Bermúdez.[10] She also collaborated on "Sola y deja" with Valeria Gau and appeared on a remix of Tav Lust's "Amigue" with Clipper, Lu Canepa and Camila Rajchman.[11]

In March 2022, she was announced as one of the contestants for the third season of Channel 10's MasterChef Celebrity.[12] She was the twenty-third eliminated, finishing in sixth place overall.[13] In July she was featured on the single "Cuidado corazón" by Lucas Sugo and released "Ahora que te vas".[14] In 2023, Percíncula competed on and won the third season of ¿Quién es la máscara? as "Tigress".[15] In June of that year, she sang the National Anthem before the Uruguayan football team's match against the Nicaraguan team at the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo.[16]

On December 2, 2023, she performed her first concert at the Teatro de Verano theater which she had several guest singers.[17] In January 2024, she was announced as coach of La Voz Uruguay for the new season, replacing Lucas Sugo.[18]
